Did your suppliers ever get these, Rick?
I shipped these over a month ago, with tracking, and received sporadic responses from DHL. The last info I received was late January when it was handed over to China Post.  It's conceivable that it's still in transit, but I'm concerned that they are lost.
Make that "months".  Damn, I can't math.

Rick, did your supplier in China ever work out for these switches?  I'm interested in 2 to 6 of them depending on price.  I sure would love to see these have a reliable supply path again.

I wish. They totally lost the shipment, and I have been trying for months to find a supplier who can provide them. I am not giving up hope, however. I have a couple of new leads on a company who may be able to get them, and hope to update this thread soon!

I can't verify what happened, since DHL has limited shipment tracking into China. The shipment doesn't show as delivered on the DHL site, and all I can go on is that my supplier says they never received the package. I was able to get my shipping costs returned, which wasn't cheap, but it certainly wasn't worth the loss of the original buttons.
